Instability Comment
<p>We were at the Bunchgrass yurt for three days and did not see/feel any collapsing or cracking or recent avalanches. However a ECT 22 came out on a grauple layer at 85cm (33 inches) on a NE, 33 deg. slope at 9000ft. as seen in photos. I did not feel comfortable with this even though it did not fail until 22 whacks. </p> <p>Lots of wind slab on the ridges that seem to gaining strength, but still leary with the buried weak layers. </p>

We were at the Bunchgrass yurt for three days. Nice turning on most aspects especially after the new snow Saturday.
